A new pew research study reveals a significant decline in the number of U.S. adults identifying as Christians, now at 62%, while those identifying as religiously unaffiliated has risen to nearly 30%. Trends indicate a generational shift, with younger adults less likely to identify with any religion. Amidst this change, the survey also highlights growing diversity within U.S. religions.
